romney narrowed deficit about who cares for the middle class. there are kind of four important metrics i've been paying a lot of attention to within our poll and other polls that are kind of lower in the cross tabs but matter a great deal which is, who is a strong leader? who can get things done? and those have been neck-and-neck. romney has had the lead on who can actually get things done and, i think he will, he will build on that. but the fact that more people thought romney would be the best of the two candidates to actually accomplish something shows there was upside potential and upside growth. you remember back in 2008, i've been saying this for months, at the height of his popularity barack obama only got 52.9% of the popular vote. so, even though he still is leading in the swing states and those will tighten up, romney does have a floor that he can build off of from 2008. >> holman, a great american. we appreciate it. enjoy the rest of your night in denver. this is what i call an honor. craig gordon, runs our coverage. don't even know w
